Welcome to Flatbush

GREENPOINT is located on the northern tip of Brooklyn, right across the Pulaski bridge from LIC Queens, with views of the Manhattan skyline. Its architecture consists of a mix of 19th and 20th century-built townhouses, pre-war apartment buildings and mixed-use walk-ups. Greenpoint is a tight knit community of multi-generational homeowners with strong neighborhood cultural institutions, right alongside artists, professionals and creative entrepreneurs who also call it home. There are bustling streets filled with shops and restaurants (along Greenpoint and Manhattan Avenues, in particular) and industrial areas repurposed for sleek, modern high rises. Greenpoint also has a vibrant arts and culture scene, with galleries, music venues, and independent shops.
